And Master Lin is now a target set up by the sage in the court. His every move is monitored, and he is not allowed to act without authorization.
The biggest difficulty for her in this matter is not to deal with Xu Twelve, but whether she can face the cruel truth, whether she can withstand the deep pain, whether she can keep her precarious state of mind stable, and whether she can see the present and the future clearly.
She can, she can.
She has faced it, endured it, and seen it clearly. She will personally complete the incomplete story and meet the person who fought hard to bring her into this world to suffer and enjoy happiness.
Xu Twelve and Xu Four were too despicable and dirty. She couldn't let the gentlemen get stuck in such filth. She would make them suffer the consequences.
After drinking the extremely bitter medicine prescribed by Doctor Chen, Xu Jiang felt that the bitterness in her heart was not so severe anymore.
She drank three bowls of rice water to suppress the bitterness, then tidied herself up. After she looked the same as usual, she got into the carriage with Yinyin and drove to Zhaoxingfang.
There were people waiting for her to come home.

Xu Twelve stayed awake all night, two blood blisters forming on his mouth. He stayed up until noon, when the patrolman from yesterday finally stood at the gate with a cold face and called out, "Xu Twelve, come with me to the secretariat to sign and seal your name."

The chief clerk examined Xu Twelve's old indenture and read out, "Xu Twelve." He then frowned. "That doesn't sound like the name of a good citizen. It would be inappropriate to have it in the register. Do you have a proper name?"
"A proper name?" Xu Twelve looked up at the name on the indenture. He had changed it from Xu Twelve to Ma Twelve, and then back to Xu Twelve. How could it be a proper name? "I..."

Xu Twelve was confused at first, then his expression changed in shock, and his lips began to tremble.
